A cheap, facile and metal-free photochemical protocol for the activation of aromatic aldehydes has been developed. Utilizing thioxanthen-9-one as the photocatalyst and cheap household lamps as the light source, a variety of aromatic aldehydes have been activated and subsequently converted in a one-pot reaction into amides, hydroxamic acids and esters in good to high yields. The applicability of this method was highlighted in the synthesis of Moclobemide, a drug against depression and social anxiety. Extended and detailed mechanistic studies have been conducted, in order to determine a plausible mechanism for the reaction.

Here we report a facile method for the synthesis of nickel oxide-nickel (NiO@Ni) Mott-Schottky catalyst employing metal-organic framework (MOF) as the precursor. A direct amidation protocol of aldehydes with amines has been optimized under mild conditions using NiO@Ni Mott-Schottky catalyst and it shows far better catalytic activity than the NiO?Ni nanoparticles prepared from simple Ni2+ salt under similar reaction conditions. The heterogeneous catalyst is robust, recyclable and efficient to provide comparable yield to costly ligand-based homogeneous Ni catalysts. The scope of the reaction protocol has been explored with variably substituted substrates. The reaction initiates by homolytic cleavage of peroxide and proceeds through radical mechanism.

Reported is an iridium catalyst for ortho-selective C?H borylation of challenging secondary aromatic amide substrates, and the regioselectivity is controlled by hydrogen-bond interactions. The BAIPy-Ir catalyst forms three hydrogen bonds with the substrate during the crucial activation step, and allows ortho-C?H borylation with high selectivity. The catalyst displays unprecedented ortho selectivities for a wide variety of substrates that differ in electronic and steric properties, and the catalyst tolerates various functional groups. The regioselective C?H borylation catalyst is readily accessible and converts substrates on gram scale with high selectivity and conversion.
